六、阅读理解。
① Do you remember your first birthday party or learning to walk Most people cannot remember anything before the age of three or four. This experience is called “infantile amnesia (婴儿遗忘症)”.
② Scientists once thought babies couldn’t make memories because their brains weren’t ready. They thought a special part of the brain—the memory part didn’t develop fully in young children.
③ However, a new study challenges this idea. In the study, researchers showed babies pictures of faces and things. Later, they showed the babies these pictures again as well as some new photos. If a baby looked longer at the picture showed before, that usually meant the baby knew what it was. Then, the researchers found something important: If the baby’s memory part worked harder when he was seeing a picture, the baby was more likely to remember it later. This means babies may start making memories much younger than we thought.
④ But this raises a big question: If babies can make memories, why can’t we remember being babies Scientists still aren’t sure.
⑤ One idea suggests baby memories are only short-term. Like quickly forgetting a phone number, these memories are gone as we get older.
⑥ Another idea is that the memories stay in our brains forever, but we lose the way to access them— that is, to find and get them back. As the scientist Nick Turk-Browne, who led the study, says, “The problem isn’t making memories—it’s finding them later.”
( )1. According to Paragraph 2, why did the scientists think babies couldn ’t make memories
A. Because babies didn’t see enough pictures.
B. Because their memory parts didn’t develop fully.
C. Because memories just went away quickly.
D. Because scientists didn’t study them carefully.
( )2. What can we infer from the new study
A. One-year-old babies have no brain activities at all.
B. We may still have the memory of our first walk.
C. Researchers showed pictures of animals and things to the babies.
D. Girls usually have better memories than boys.
( )3. Which sentence uses “access” with the same meaning as the under lined word
A. You need a key to access the School Computer Center.
B. The library gives free Internet access to all students.
C. Reading books helps us access the truth of the world.
D. Every student has access to the teacher ’s help after class.
( )4. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage
七、阅读还原。
It is believed that a good memory comes naturally, while a bad memory cannot be changed. 1. _________ Here is some advice for you.
▲ Take an interest. 2. _________ This can explain the reason why schoolboys remember football results clearly but have trouble with dates from their history lessons.
▲ Repeat things in chunks (块). Repeating things in chunks is the best way to remember things for a short time. 3. _________ The following numbers would be impossible for most of us to remember: 1492178919318483. But look at them in groups or chunks repeatedly and remembering them becomes much easier: 149 217 8919 318 483.
▲ 4. _________ To remember long lists, try inventing a story which includes all the things you want to remember. In experiments, people were asked to remember up to 120 words in this way. When tested later, they could remember about 90% of them. The test result was really amazing.
▲ Take physical exercise. Physical exercise is important for your memory, because it sends more oxygen (氧气) to your brain, and that makes your memory work better. 5. _________ As we know, too much pressure is very bad for the memory.
参考答案
一、1.sadness 解析：of 后跟名词, sad 的名词形式是sadness。
2.retell 解析：根据“The clever boy listened to the teacher so carefully”可知, 这个聪明的男孩认真听老师讲课, 能够清楚地复述文章。retell“复述”, 符合语境。
3.cases 解析：根据前面的some 可知名词用复数形式。
4.memorize 解析：分析句子成分可知此处缺少谓语动词, 前 面有助动词do, 所以动词用原形, memory 的动词为memorize。
5.ticked ticks 解析：第一空缺少谓语动词, 根据made 可知时态为一般过去时, 所以填ticked。small 修饰名词, 结合语境可知, 第二空需用名词复数, 所以填ticks。
二、1.grown-up 2.ran out 3.grandsons 4.recalled 5.mixes up
三、1.to 2.An 3.through 4.in 5.to

六、1.B 解析：细节理解题。根据“Scientists once thought babies couldn’t make memories... didn’t develop fully in young children.”可知, 科学家认为婴儿无法形成记忆的原因是大脑的记忆部位发育不足。
2.B 解析：推理判断题。根据“This means babies may start making memories much younger than we thought.” 以及“the memories stay in our brains forever, but we lose the way to access them—that is, to find and get them back”可推断, 我们可能仍保留首次行走的记忆。
3.C 解析：词义猜测题。画线词为动词形式; 根据“the memories stay in our brains forever, but we lose the way to access them—that is, to find and get them back”可知, 此处指获取记忆, 所以画线部分的含义是“获取”, C 选项符合。
4.A 解析：篇章结构题。通读全文可知, 文章第一段提出 “婴儿遗忘症”现象; 第二段介绍传统理论解释; 第三段提出新证据; 第四至六段提出核心问题以及两种理论解释。
